Marching Band 2024 First Meeting

We'll be doing music hand out (if you haven't received it already) and instrument check out. We'll meet members of the section, play some music, and do a general check in. Please be in attendance!


Instrument Check In/Out

We will be processing our inventory after the Memorial Day performance and there are two options for turning in your instrument. ALL instruments must be in by Memorial Day. 


If you are NOT attending Memorial Day, please drop off your instrument to 1209 after your last band class that week. 


If you are attending Memorial Day, please return your instrument to 1209 after you get off the bus OR assign a buddy to bring it back for you if you are staying in Cross Plains. 


Instruments will be checked out to students again starting the 28th during school for marching band, summer camps, etc.
